“I was never ready for this, and I knew that. I tried telling people, and they didn’t listen.” Giselle, who goes by G, was 17 years old and 11 weeks pregnant. As a minor, her access to an abortion was governed by Texas’s “parental involvement” law.

"It felt as if a rope was running from the Antarctic ice in front of the ship to the coastal waterways of Louisiana so far away — it felt like what we've done, as humans, to accelerate climate change has pulled that rope taught."

Today is my last day as @KUER’s southern Utah and environmental reporter. I’ve so enjoyed the last 2+ years! I don’t really have words to describe it all, so here are some of my fav pics of the desert I loved reporting in (plus me doing radio stuff irl).
It was fun doing a park audiopostcard for one of my last stories! You can listen to me out of breath at Coral Pink Sand Dunes: https://t.co/bw8kWD4mHS
Plus @kristinecweller and @ivana__martinez’s postcards take you back in time: https://t.co/AbbznvJy6T

Thank you to the amazing team — including those who have already left the station. Public radio is such a special thing and you all have shown me that. If you ever need someone to talk about RHOSLC, I’m ready.
Also I’m v excited to see what @ElleCNews does now with this beat!
The GM of @AltaSkiArea said they'll fund where gondola lands, but didn't say they'd help w/ overall project.
As for the criticism it's only for resorts?
"It's really a service for the public ... It's no different than someone saying, I want to use Trax to go to the Jazz game."
Today @UDOTTRAFFIC picked a gondola to address Little Cottonwood Canyon traffic probs, but it's going to take years to actually happen.
In the meantime, the canyon will get an enhanced bus system & other improvements.
Lots of feelings about the gondola!

Opponents say it's a huge burden (estimated at $550 million) for the public, especially since it'll mainly serve private resorts. Plus they say it won't actually fix the traffic probs.
But the phased plans could be a silver lining, "Now it's in our hands to change our behavior.”
